Mental Health in Sport

Mental health impacts the quality of life and performance of both sport participants and coaches.

Sport is linked to a range of positive outcomes, including improved mental health and well-being. Coaches have a great deal of influence over participants’ mental health.

After completing the Mental Health in Sport eLearning module, you will be able to:

This eLearning module will take approximately 45-60 minutes to complete.
